I'd imagine Teague still has value, something we really don't have (i'd offer the 32nd + Lou for Teague in a heartbeat but i doubt Atlanta goes for that)


True, but Teague's best value was last off season, he had 2 yrs left on his contract and was coming off that great ATL run and 1st time All Star, by this off season it's the last point to get any kind of value because he'll be an expiring contract to the team who acquires him this off season, if he's traded, and will require a big paycheck so one season may not be enough time to judge that decision and he may just leave, as he'd be a UFA if im not mistaken in the 2017 FA Class


i think so, i mean if Atlanta take that deal i offered there, we should do it in a heartbeat, Teague as a starter now and Clarkson being used as a 6th man (still getting similar minutes) would be probably better than what we're doing now (obviously Clarkson is a good starter, but he would excel as a combo 6th man until we eventually have him start and teague off the bench, also Teague can't really play P.G)

Trade value isn't too high, but he could still be moved. The maximum amount he can be offered is roughly 14M and given his age, 23, and the rising cap, there are deals to be made, if the front office wanted to.
For instance,
Memphis may be rebuilding - completely - so a s/t for a few of their veterans could be possible: Allen, Carter, Wright, perhaps.
New York - perhaps a s/t for Afflalo and Calderon. I know JC is better than both, but those two would probably help just as much in the immediate future and they're FAs in 2017.
